1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.

So, I joined Lemmy.world as it was the biggest instance.
Is there a way that does not include creating another two or three basically pointless accounts to view other instances in the "local" view.
For example: Say that I am Canadian, (I am not, but it works for this example) and I joined the lemmy.ca, but I also want to see what goes on at sh.itjust.works without having to subscribe to every single community in both.
Yes, sort of, in the Voyager app, but it’s awkward and unintuitive.
Pretend you’re going to create a new account or log into a different server through Voyager’s interface. Search up the server you want (sh.itjust.works in your example). Tap it so there’s a checkmark on its entry in the list, but instead of pressing the big blue Next button at the bottom, tap on the three dots in a circle icon in the upper right, and choose “Connect as Guest”.
Then it will be one of the account list entries and you can switch to it like you would switch to another account. Go to the community list from there and select Local. Now do a very awkward dance if you find a post that you want to interact with from your logged-in account. Best way to use this “feature” is probably just as community discovery to then subscribe from your account.
Huh, it's definitely unintuitive and a bit clunky, but at least I can read local news etc even if I can't comment
Same is possible in Thunder through Anonymous Instances but you also can't interact with the posts.
